Quick question

Are those water bags that are enclosed in a cardboard box safe for long term storage

Like image related

The water bag is made of some sort polyethylene shinny bag

Polyethylene is translucent so some light will get into the water

But the bag is enclosed in the cardboard which then the whole box is covered in a seal tight plastic that must be ripped in order to use it

So I’m thinking buying about 3 of this. Each box holds 20 liters

That’s enough for 3 days of water for 5 people

Question is. Will I need to add some sort of water preserver? Or storing it in a cool place away from the sun should do it?

Well if you think about plastic water bottles they're contained and they can last a long time, so yes I think if you can keep them in a cool place away from the sun they can last a bit more than there exp. date. The only problem is that the bags my have plastic particles like a regular water bottle does

>away from the sun
this absolutely, I remember a couple hurricanes ago some mongoloid wound up leaving two cases of bottled water outside and the sun wound up heating the plastic and allowing it to leech into the water

^^

I think I read that the sun didn’t really made the plastic leech into the water

It just changes the taste of the water

I say away from the sun to prevent the growth of bacteria and shit

if it changed the taste of the water then it surely must have leeched into the water

maybe another method of preservation could be through the fermentation of a weak alcohol to keep a sterile environment, then to keep that out of sun?

The temperature change and sun exposure changes the taste of water directly

Start thinking about food storage prep, very seriously.

Not just beans and rice either, that's a larp.

Things like peanut butter, coffee, cans of tomato sauce, bulk pasta, jello packets etc. Think about bulk multivitamins, and things like baking soda.

Something every pantry should have is beef or chicken bullion as well. This is a very easy way to add flavor to beans and rice that you cook.

Another thing: dehydrated milk. Milk will be nearly impossible to get when shit goes down, you should have a few cans of this.

Freeze dried just-add-water meals as well. Think knorr or ramens, but do not make these the bulk of your prep as they lack nutrition.

Seriously consider getting a dehydrator and making jerkey / fruit leathers.

Are you LARPING, or are you fucking serious about having USABLE food storage that you can rotate into you diet as cheaper eating as well?

do multivitamins actually work?

@Patrick Bateman yes and no

they make a difference in that they (may) keep you from being deficient, but most multivitamins are made with bare minimum daily requirements in mind

they're supplements and should be regarded as such

fat soluble vitamins have ability to be acummulated in body’s fat deposits so when you have deficiency from external source body can use those deposits but not water soluble ones. They usually het excreted if you have excess ammount in body.

some deficiencies are extremely rare and only come out in severly malnourished individuals some come out quicker

it depends in what kind of environment you will live and what food you will have

taking vitamins twice a week is what i do
